You were created to grow, to thrive, and to live an abundant life. But sometimes the storm can become too hard to weather. Do you you feel alone and need support? Perhaps you need to be heard, to share your story. Maybe you need to be challenged, to face your fears or your past and conquer what is holding you back from living a full life. Whatever the reason is that you are struggling or seeking change, counseling offers a place of safety, acceptance, and encouragement for you to process, heal, and grow. You don’t have to do this alone. I would be honored to journey with you toward a happier and healthier life.

You’re wrong again! Or at least thats what you’ve been told over & over again, to the point that your brain feels like its floating in acid water, slowing dissolving your ability to perceive any given situation, event or memory of a conversation accurately. You don’t recall having problems with memory or perception before this relationship. You’re struggling to make sense of every day things. This is just one of the effects of narcissistic abuse. It's called gaslighting, it's an insidious tool used to erode your ability to perceive reality and its also one of the most common tools used by a narcissist to control and manipulate you.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often times self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others and felt empty inside. Instead of accepting my reality and the changing interaction between the environment, others and myself - I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change.

Humanistic Therapists

How does humanistic therapy work?

One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.

Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?

Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.

How long does humanistic therapy last?

The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.

Is humanistic therapy effective?

According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
